We Offer Options for Relaxation

Not every sedation dentistry method is right for every patient. That’s why our sedation dentist in Menomonie, WI & Eau Claire, WI, provides you with several methods to melt away the stress of your dental visit, including:

Nitrous oxide (N²O)
Intravenous (IV) conscious sedation
Local anesthetic

Let's Create Your Perfect Smile

Nitrous Oxide (N²O)

Nitrous oxide is a colorless odorless gas that can be breathed in through a nose mask while your procedure is performed.
Effects of euphoria and relaxation begin within five minutes.
The effects dissipate quickly with no side effects, allowing you to drive yourself to and from your appointment.
Nitrous oxide does not require the use of needles, so it is an excellent option if you have a fear of needles.

IV Conscious Sedation

IV conscious sedation is typically recommended for complex dental issues or moderate to severe dental anxiety.
Our sedation dentist will administer a drug via an IV, and you will fall into an almost instantaneous state of relaxation.
While under this form of sedation, you will be aware of any instructions from Dr. Trimble yet will most likely have no memory of the procedure afterward.

Local Anesthetic

A local anesthetic is a medicine, usually Lidocaine, injected into the mouth to numb a specific area.
The effects last for several hours.
This method can be combined with other methods of sedation dentistry for optimal results.
